    The backup and restore methods are used to dump / restore the
    system database in a database independent format. The file is a
    Zip archive containing the following files:

    * format.txt: the format of the archive. Currently '1.0'
    * tables.txt: list of filenames in the archive tables/ directory
    * sequences.txt: list of filenames in the archive sequences/ directory
    * versions.txt: the list of cube versions from CWProperty
    * tables/<tablename>.<chunkno>: pickled data
    * sequences/<sequencename>: pickled data

    The pickled data format for tables and sequences is a tuple of 3 elements:
    * the table name
    * a tuple of column names
    * a list of rows (as tuples with one element per column)

    Tables are saved in chunks in different files in order to prevent
    a too high memory consumption.
